Smooth Skin Bar

I recently, as in yesterday, had a facial (which was wayyy over due) and I am so in love with my face right now. I swear my face is as soft as my little 6 month old niece (she's on the right, that lip...I die!).

I highly recommend going to see Linda at Smooth Skin Bar. She is so knowledgeable about all different skin types. She understands that not all of us are the typical A, B, C, or D skin type; sometimes there are the in-betweeners like muah. However, she is not the pushy sales person type though. You have to tell her you want to buy products, before she will sit down with you and talk to you about what she thinks would be best for your skin moving forward. Trust me you are going to want to do this; she starts you out on tons of samples so you don't get stuck with something you don't like. She is awesome and really cares about making you look and feel your best.

These are the skin cares that she started me out on, and I must say they feel and smell heavenly.

Our Monday's are our off days and usually consists of watching a movie at https://www.sundancecinemas.com/houston.html(best movie theatre in Houston), dinner at http://uchirestaurants.com/houston/and in bed before 9pm! I know we are lame... But we love it. This week, we saw Silver Linings Playbook, a Romantic comedy with some underlying truths, starring Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, Robert De Niro, Julia Stiles and Chris Tucker. I enjoyed the film so much, I felt obliged to share some thoughts with you guys.

First a littlehistory,I met bohoSarah in 2001 whilecheeringforthe Houston Texans. Wehad a greattime cheering, butjokethatmeetingeachotherwasthebestthing from it! I instantlyfeel in love with her sistersandawesomefamily. There is probably not a morefunfamily than the Salinas'!!! From therewemerged all thesisters to startthis blog... wedidtry to hook bohoKady, a.k.a Sisterand their brotherupsowe could be realsisters... but that didn't happen. I thinkwe would allagreefilms, playsandevenfootballgames (my boyfriend is a BIGfootballfan, sonow I havenochoicebut to likeit a littlemore) can help us escape from our ownfoggyrealitiesfor a couple of hours. I wasdrawn to thisfilmbecauseitlinked dance(which I LOVE), football, andlove in a very alluring way. Itwasn't theclassic chick flick; ithadmoresubstance. My boyfriendevenenjoyedit... and not justbecausefootballwasinvolved.

I hadstartedthedayworking out andthen couldn't getmoving... I think I waswaiting on it to getcoldoutside, so I would have an excuse to stay in.Sometimes I feel like I seethesamethings, eatthesamethingsandget in a mood(I am verythankfulfor my life, justbeinghonest). Surprisingly, thisfilmallowed me to releaseandseelife through anotherset of lens..., anditwasawesome. Themaincharacter, Pat, is acclaimed sociallyawkward, bipolar andsaysthings without a filter. I feel like I am aroundtoomanystraightlacedhumanssometimesandquestionwhoreallyseeslifeclearer. Pat or them? Aren't weallsurrounded by mereillusions of whatwewant to accept? After seeinglife through Pat, I feltveryinspired, creative, and as if I hadtoohadhadtherapy. Pat's vulnerability is what I hadbeenlacking... and hehelped me put a littlespark in my stepandvalue what's important in my life. I am solucky to have a group of bohosisters to listen to me if I need to ventoraskforadvice. Ateam, groupor collaboration alwaysmakesfor a betterdecision. So I sayrisk everything, sticktogether, seethingsmoregrey than blackorwhiteandsurround yourself with morepositivehumans...Andgoseethefilm! It will turn your Monday around.

*In the film, Chris Tucker says, "put a littleblack in it..." referring to adding a little booty whiledancing. Soeither "...put a littleblack in it..." orfollow us and our blog's motto, A divulgence of thehappiness within. Take some with youorleavesome behind.
